John Lowell Anderson - A Lot To Lose

As I'm getting older
The world seems so much smaller
Shrinking like a t shirt in the wash
Never thought i'd like the taste
Of winter in the empire state
You were hotter than a fire to melt the frost
And presently I'm walking
Down Monte Vista talking
To this girl i met on halloween eve
Wishing she could feel the gold
And how it hits this house i told
Her about on the corner of 56
I know a home, i know a soft sound
Maybe i can skip town, and lay down next to you
Out on the road, no one's gonna come around
Nothin's gonna go down on its own, nothin new
And we've both got a lot to lose
Kyle was telling stories about
Bout driving with us solely
To figure out what happens when you die
I'm not one for urgency
But time is just now greeting me with the glint
Of his unchanging eyes
And as I watch the light give way
I see that love's a thing you take
Gotta reach out and grab it by the hand
I know a home, i know a soft sound
maybe i can skip town, and lay down next to you
Out on the road, No one's gonna come around
Nothing's gonna go down on its own, nothing new
And we've both got a lot to lose
A lot to lose, A lot to lose
